Hello everybody! Thank you so much for all the important information in advance. My personal car was at the shop and I needed to rent a car. I did — from Turo. I purchased a minimum coverage from Turo (my deductible was $3000). Was in traffic going around 15-20mph and the car in front of me slammed their brakes. In order for me to prevent the collision, I swirled to change the lane to the right, hitting their back right corner, and wiped my car through the curbside. They had a scratch and one side of rear bumper got unhooked. The car I was driving had the headlight destroyed, front bumper fully came off, and the driver‘s door stuck. The other party filed a claim with my car insurance. My car insurance does not cover rental. I’m so genuinely confused because my insurance is telling me to figure it all out as they have a balance of $4000 that I am required to pay. And I’m wondering if the other party was supposed to file the claim with Turo? Is my car insurance supposed to be invo

I work for an employer that does Cigna healthcare with three tiers, but the costs for all three plans are similar to the three tiers that Blue Cross Blue Shield offers on the open market. I currently have a premium plan with BCBS for ~$1400/month and my employer’s premium plan is also ~$1400/month. How do companies get away with “offering” healthcare insurance that isn’t subsidized at all? This seems very disingenuous

Today our new 2025 rav4 got rear ended by a driver. It has 5000 miles on it and we just took it to get its first oil change and were given a coupon for free carwashes for a year. Decided to get a wash once we were done. The carwash place is one with a conveyor belt type of thing that brings the car forward. The signs said to go into neutral and let the belt do everything so we did. Suddenly we get banged from the car behind us. The worker at the carwash stopped everything and said multiple times it was the driver behind us at fault. She didn't go into neutral and instead stayed in drive and accelerated, causing her to "jump" the grooves on the belt and hit us. She kept saying she had no idea what happened. Our car isn't seriously damaged from what we can tell, the back bumper will need replacing and above that is dented. The other driver's car was fine, go figure. I did ask the witness/employee at the carwash for his name and if he had footage. He said the corporate office would have it. I do have a front dash cam that doesn't really show much but you can hear a loud boom from the impact. I'm hoping and praying my insurance company can see it wasn't our fault. I know we have to get everything repaired before worrying about a diminished value claim. I'm just wondering how this will all work. We exchanged insurance info and we both have geico. I submitted the claim but how will all this work with trying to get a diminished value claim? Will geico just say no since they're kind of "going against" their own company to try to recoup our loss? Sorry I just don't understand what to do.

i went to urgent care to get HIV PEP pills. Which must be taken within 72 hours of a potential exposure. i payed my $10 copay and They prescribed me the medicine where I was able to get my medication at the pharmacy that was covered by Aetna. But when I checked they fully denied my visit when I called she said the visit was not urgent. i told her I want to do an appeal. But im Absolutely disgusted by Aetna im already traumatized. i feel this needs to reported but I don't know which agency I would need to reach out too.

I have a 2015 Toyota RAV4 and I still owe 12,000 on the vehicle, Just got it last year. with that being said I was in an accident on 3/6 and their insurance company wants to claim the vehicle as a total loss... my question is what if they don't give me enough to cover the loan? I am pretty stressed because the accident was not my fault at all. it is going to liberty mutual does anyone have any idea?

My health insurance company won’t use the word “covered.” They only use the word “consider,” even when the category is “benefits and coverage.” One of their agents told me they can’t use the word “cover.” For example, in a recent communication they said, "Home health care must be approved in advance, (pre-authorization), and is limited to 90 visits per plan year. Once approved, services provided by an In-Network PPO provider will be considered at 100 percent of the allowable charge with no co-pay. “ This statement doesn’t make any sense. They said it has been “approved.” What is left to “consider?”

So I got hired onto State Farm in the Aspirant Program since I already have experience selling life insurance. It all sounded great when they were hiring me. But….. I am a week into this and I am getting zero direction and am told to just look into the book and see if there is any way to resell life insurance to any clients already with life insurance. Does anyone have any experience in this program. Because as of now I am a little confused on what this program actually is. It seems more like I got hired to be a sales guy for the agent instead of actually striving to be an agent.

My dog has IVDD and hit the $10k annual limit this year. I’ve been paying $178.49/month for 90% reimbursement and a $500 deductible. Now my provider wants to increase it to $248.59/month for the same coverage, which is a 39% increase ($840 more per year). Has anyone found a provider that covers chronic conditions like IVDD without this kind of rate hike? I’m open to switching if the new insurer doesn’t exclude spinal issues and will accept pre-existing.

I own a condo, which I reside in. The unit directly above me is a rental property. So, a pipe was leaking from the unit above me. HOA says the upstairs unit is fully responsible for any costs incurred in repairing the pipe and restoring my bathroom due to the water damage it caused. The breakdown in cost for my Master Bath is as follows: \*Demolition:   $2,879.00 (already completed) \*Remodeling:  $4,554.39 TOTAL COST:   $7,433.39 The upstairs neighbor’s insurance company, Farmers, just paid me a total of $5,570.51 to cover all costs associated with the completed demolition and for the not-yet-started remodeling. That leaves a shortfall of $1,862.88 to make my bathroom “whole” again. Farmers explained that there is depreciation. My condo was built in 1986. I believe the bulk of the cost associated with restoring my bathroom is labor. Not the materials. Right? Since you can't depreciate labor costs, how can the insurance company justify paying out a significant amount less than what is needed to return my bathroom to the condition it was in before the water damage? For example, one item on the list the contractor submitted to the insurance estimate was $290 to hook the toilet back up and reset it. I asked the contractor how much the cost would be for the material to do that. He said all it takes is some wax. I asked him for a breakdown of material costs vs labor costs, and he said he can't come up with that because it's complicated, and the computer spits out the pricing already bundled together. This is my first time buying a place to live. So, I am not as familiar with all of this, and if I am being denied something I am entitled to from the upstairs owner's insurance. Here is a summary of what the General Contractor submitted to Farmers: Recap by Category O&P Items Total % CABINETRY 710.40 15.60% CLEANING 158.33 3.48% GENERAL DEMOLITION 182.82 4.01% DRYWALL 732.75 16.09% ELECTRICAL 214.02 4.70% FINISH CARPENTRY / TRIMWORK 280.02 6.15% HEAT, VENT & AIR CONDITIONING 13.28 0.29% INSULATION 49.76 1.09% LIGHT FIXTURES 58.29 1.28% MIRRORS & SHOWER DOORS 191.83 4.21% PLUMBING 581.01 12.76% PAINTING 564.27 12.39% O&P Items Subtotal 3,736.78 82.05% Material Sales Tax 58.47 1.28% Overhead 379.57 8.33% Profit 379.57 8.33% Total 4,554.39 100.00% Should Farmers have to pay the full amount to restore the bathroom to its original state? If not, how do I go about getting the remaining amount if I am not responsible for costs?

I am currently 2 months pregnant and just recently went for my 2nd pre-natal routine checkup. They performed a papsmear, and a ton of blood testing since I am almost 40yrs and it may be in the high risk category for pregnancy. Before I went in to see the doctor. The people at the front desk assured me that my Ambetter plan covers everything that needed to be done. But today, I received a letter in the mail from ambetter saying that I was denied for "Genetic Testing" as it falls out of their covered services. I am really stressed out about this and don't know what I should do. The people at the doctor's office told me they cover it, and ambetter is telling me otherwise. I also signed up for CHIP perinatal and wonder if that covers Genetic Testing.
